Ecology
Environment Lesser vile minions typically do not wander far from where they were killed, though they can be made to follow the greater vile minion who turned them if the greater vile minion decides to travel.
Typical Physical Characteristics: Lesser vile minions will retain their appearance from exactly when they died, so they will always look freshly dead. In fact they could pass as still living if you ignored any wounds, missing limbs, etc. The retain none of the traits of their living self and lose the ability to speak, except for man babbling, screaming, and moaning. If a lesser vile minion died in armor, it is still wearing that armor and will have the AC bonus presented by the armor.
Lore
Lesser vile minions were at one point humanoids. Unfortunately, they were killed by a greater vile minion only to be preserved as their thrall until one of the two dies.
